Broken In
i have 4 partitions of my HDD with one of the partitions F: almost full with only 100 kb of space left.That is the recovery backup disk.
Now windows keeps pointing that out to me from the lower right corner of the taskbar after a while continously giving a low disk space reminder.
Is there no way I can stop it if I don't want to delete the data on that particular partition.

Hi Bro
Which Os Are you Talking about

do This For win XP

Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Policies\ Explorer.
If it's not there, create a DWORD value and call it NoLowDiskSpaceChecks.
Double-click on NoLowDiskSpaceChecks, and enter the value 1, and press OK.


do this for Win 98

Open the Disk Cleanup utility (run cleanmgr.exe, or go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Disk Cleanup).
Select the drive on which Windows is installed and click Ok.
Choose the Settings tab, and turn off the If this drive runs low on disk space, automatically run Disk Cleanup option
Click Ok when you're done - answer any subsequent prompts as desired.
You may have to repeat this for all your hard disks (if you have more than one).

thats it
